How to Launch a Broadcast Immediately?

When you need to send a broadcast right away, without waiting for the scheduled time, immediate launch allows starting sending in a few seconds. This instruction will help launch a broadcast manually.


When Needed

  • The broadcast is already created, but you need to send it earlier than scheduled.
  • You need to quickly test the broadcast on a small group of clients.
  • You need to launch an emergency broadcast without waiting for the schedule.

What's Important to Know

  • Immediate launch — manual launch of a broadcast that starts sending immediately after clicking the button.
  • The broadcast must be active for immediate launch capability.
  • After launch, the broadcast begins sending according to system settings.

Prerequisites


Step-by-Step Instructions

  1. In the Broadcast module, go to the "Broadcasts" section — a table with all broadcasts opens.
  2. Find the needed broadcast in the list — make sure it is active (green indicator in the "Broadcast Active" column).
  3. Click the "Launch" icon (blue triangle) in the row of this broadcast — the system initiates immediate broadcast launch.

What Happens After

The broadcast begins sending immediately after launch. You can track progress in the results modal window.


How to Verify It Worked

  • Check that the broadcast started sending — status should change to "in progress".
  • Open broadcast results — progress should start increasing.
  • Make sure messages began delivering to clients.
